Stop Wasting Money on Outdated Film Finance Software

Where it Started

Our Journey

Our founder and CEO, Joshua Dixon, is a producer. And he kept hitting a wall.

The leading platforms required that productions use their payroll services just to access the software. This was a non-starter, as his productions were overseas, where payroll is handled locally.

Most didn’t truly support multiple languages. They took weeks to respond to basic licensing inquiries.

In almost all cases, they simply refused to work with his company—even when he offered to pay double.

That’s when Joshua saw the gap.

Each year, Joshua produces multiple original films and services major international productions and Netflix series across Asia. With high-budget shoots in Thailand, Vietnam, and beyond, he saw firsthand how the global film industry was being underserved by tools built for only one market.

But the software giants wouldn’t budge.

So he built what they refused to offer. The industry was desperate for a tool that was simply:

  • Affordable: Indie and studio productions have similar needs. Indie projects shouldn’t be priced out of professional tools.
  • Accessible: If you work outside the US or UK, you shouldn’t be locked out.
  • Fast: Legacy systems are built on outdated tech. We’re built for the cloud. No lag, no excuses.

A Platform for the Rest of Us

Where We Are

We’ve officially launched and are now actively supporting producers and accountants who were tired of being ignored.

From large-scale shoots to scrappy indie films, users are discovering how our software saves time, cuts costs, and adapts to real production needs.

Unlike the legacy systems that serve their shareholders, we built this platform to serve the people actually doing the work.

We are proudly independent, always accessible, and just a phone call, text, or email away. Our team listens, adapts, and pushes updates based on real feedback.

Whether it’s a new workflow, a report format, or a language tweak—if you need it, we work to build it.

This is a partnership with filmmakers and accountants everywhere. And we’re just getting started.
